Roll Express — Restaurant in Melbourne

They are amazing!

Back in ancient times, Buddhist monk were prohibited from eating meat, so they managed to cook meat alternatives from soy: tofu. With tofu, they could taste a flavour similar to meat, while still being vegetarian.

But this place did something more amazing! I bought a roast pork banh mi for 8.50 (which is much more expensive than Footscray, where they sell the same thing for 5), and they performed magic in front of me!

THEY MADE MEAT TASTE LIKE THERE WASN’T ANY MEAT! Apart from the fact that it was very expensive, they also added near-zero meat in it. It was definitely not worth its price. For the 5 bucks banh mi I mentioned above, you could expect at least triple the amount of meat in it.

Will never...

Worst food I've ever ordered and with so many of these bakeries around dont know how this one is still operating. Paid $10 for a roll with 2 leaves of coriander 5 tiny shreds of carrot a pinch of lettuce and the smallest amount of meat it might as well have been left out (yes we watched her count everything out and put things back if it was more) Even if this was the last place on earth I still wouldn't...

Kind greetings from the staff. I had ordered a traditional beef Vietnamese PHO and it was absolutely beautiful, the flavours were there not too overpowering but also not too bland and the portions they give you aren’t too much or too little it’s enough to be satisfied. Will 100% come back and try out the other options...
